Hotel de la Porte Dorée

In Paris’s 12th arrondissement in Bercy, a leafy spot just off avenue Daumesnil. Steps from the coulée verte and a short walk to Bois de Vincennes, with quick metro and bus links to Bercy Village, Canal Saint‑Martin and central Paris. Pet-friendly and perfectly placed for park runs, museum strolls and easy airport transfers.

An eco-certified boutique hotel with 43 warmly decorated rooms. Rooms feature iPod docks and DVD players, flat-screen TVs, air conditioning and private bathrooms with hairdryers; some rooms include bathrobes. The vibe is relaxed and local — simple comforts with a Parisian twist.

Complimentary wireless internet, concierge services and a 24‑hour front desk keep things smooth. Rent a bicycle for park-side mornings, use the reception hall or arrange babysitting (surcharge). Elevator access, a breakfast room and an on-site bar round out practical perks.

A computer station and multilingual staff make short work of planning and check‑ins. 24‑hour reception and concierge services help with transfers and local arrangements.

Buffet breakfasts are served daily from 7 AM to 10 AM for a fee. A hotel bar is also on site for evening drinks after a day exploring Paris.
